Good. I don’t need light in the evening, I need it in the morning so I can wake up feeling rested. End DST; make standard time permanent.

I guess RAM is a bell curve now.

• 32GB: Enough.
• 16GB: Not enough.
• 8GB: Not enough.
• 4GB: Believe it or not, enough.

Last time I distrohopped, this was actually one of my main benchmarks. If I couldn’t install Librewolf in under a minute, I picked a different distro.

Honestly, there are probably enough people using ublock with tor browser that you can still retain most of the benefits if you do the same. You’ll just be in a smaller cohort than if you didn’t.

_Psst…🐧

To play devil’s advocate, yes, “w” is technically three syllables in English, but they’re easy enough to blur together. Meanwhile, the actual “w” sound is comparatively labor intensive, and “-orld” even more so. We’re in purple burglar alarm world.

You don’t even need to actively use it. Just keep it running in some corner of your house as a tor node.

The SCOTUS interpretation is exactly the interpretation I was taught in school back in the 90’s/2000’s.

Stable, in this context, just means “point release”. If you meant “doesn’t break”, that describes most rolling release distros.

…unless you’ve used KDE in the last month. Holy cow, just let me alt-tab into a fullscreen window without throwing a fit.

I played with Endeavor years ago, but not extensively. If memory serves, it’s pretty much just preconfigured Arch with some nice theming, a Calamares installer, and a few simple scripts. Garuda adds even more theming (too much for my tastes, actually), a few GUI utilities, notifications when your system is overdue for an update, and an update script that runs common post-update tasks (like grub-install) and takes snapper snapshots automatically, so basically user-friendly bloat.

If you like arch but want a plug’n play distro, just do a plug’n play arch-based distro. Garuda is braindead easy.

It’s the micromanagement. When earlier games became tedious, I could just pick a quicker game speed, and I would suddenly feel like I was playing with more momentum. But in VI, it actually kills momentum, as if driving the slightly faster route to work at the cost of particularly frustrating traffic, since the most tedious micro isn’t turn-based, but city-based. You only have to plan districts/improvements once per city, so I find I can still have fun with VI if I play suboptimally (i.e., tall) on tiny maps and with mods that let me cram more civilizations into the game. I’ve probably put in a few hundred hours this way.

But I’d rather just play IV or V.

Wait, are you setting up PPAs? If you’re using a user-friendly distro, either flathub should be enabled by default or the AUR is easily accessible with pamac or the chaotic-AUR. If software availability is a problem, I don’t know what to tell you; I think you started with a more difficult distribution than you intended to. PPAs suck.

The classical music world has been through this before, with Richard Wagner. Orchestras in Israel wouldn’t play his music for decades, but eventually, even they relented. It’s good music. Well, I mean, between the boring halves of hours, anyway, it’s good music.

I haven’t updated my Arch install for almost 2 months. Things are going to be… seemless, probably. I do this all the time. It never breaks.

Sometimes you can literally just go to the youtube invidious channel of a professor at a big name college, if it’s the kind of topic where a lecture series alone can provide the education you’re looking for.
